okay. let's get back to the economic impact of the outbreak of the virus and focus on china. michael pelsbury is with us, we you've been hearing a lot about 5g. but there's 5g... heard reports that chinese and then there's verizon 5g. companies going back online, we're building the most powerful 5g experience for america. getting back to work, less it's more than 10 times faster than some other 5g networks. pollution in the big cities but pollution is coming back. and it's rolling out in cities across the country. the traffic jams are coming back, is that accurate indicater so people can experience speeds that ultra wideband can deliver. of going thank work in china? 1.7 gigs here in houston. >> well, certainly all over the 1.8 gigs here in frigid omaha. front pages of china's almost 2 gigs here in los angeles. government controlled newspapers that's outrageous. the last 2 or 3 days and puts it's like an eight-lane highway out statistics that two of the compared to a two-land dirt road. great river valleys, 90% of big factories are back in operation. they've had numbers for various other economic indicators so the message coming out of china is we have controlled the virus. we know the techniques, we will share lessons with the rest of the world. they've been specific about some of those lessons. that's what china is trying to project. that differs from the wall

9:15 am
wild animals in the wuhan market. the virus jumps into humans in that way. so some of the stories are on the defensive that not only is china has things under control but stopped the source of the virus. i very much doubt that's the case. stuart: would you say then, big picture here, china says they beyond the routine checkups. beyond the not-so-routine cases. are going back to work, almost back to full employment and you comcast business is helping doctors don't believe them? provide care in whole new ways. [laughter] >> well, i can't sample the all working with a new generation of technologies factories in person but i'm powered by our gig-speed network. hesitant when i see so much effort by the chinese because they've got a concept called because beyond technology... there is human ingenuity. control a narrative, it means to every day, comcast business is helping businesses gain control of people's first go beyond the expected. impressions. so they don't want us all to to do the extraordinary. think that china is in trouble, take your business beyond. the global supply chains are going to be affected, a lot of some people say that's ridiculous. articles of how that's just not true. this is the theme out of china. i dress how i feel. i hate to say that they are yesterday i felt bold with boundless energy. lying to us but i'm a little bit

9:17 am
debates, bradley is with us, realtime, takes about -- takes bradley, you advised him, did he not listen? >> no, he did, he did. stuart: why the weak response? >> a few reasons, one is he had a lot of vulnerability for someone competing in a 45 minutes to a device to get a democratic primary. someone who had served as reading whether a patient is republican mayor 3 terms and independent in many ways, so currently infected. stuart: each test kit can only whether it was stop and frisk or be used once? >> that is correct. nda's or not a democrat, they a test can be used once but the were going to attack him. stuart: he knew he was coming, machinery that we use to do this wasn't he prepared, take this? test typically in our case will >> he was. test up to 48 people at a time. when you ask college football players and maybe true in soccer stuart: why can't you ship it too, i don't know, when they go within the united states? to the nfl, one thing they >> we now can ship it in the surprise you the most. i can't believe how fast it united states pursuant to fda moves. no matter how much you repair directive that was instituted for your first presidential debate. the real thing moves so fast. this past saturday. whatever you think of elizabeth we are now able to ship the test warren or bernie sanders or pete buttigieg, they are really good domestically to labs an we have at this and they had done it nine times already and if you overwhelming interest in that look at mike's performance both product as well.
9:18 am
in second half of first debate, stuart: okay. >> we are excited about what the he got better, but the first fda has done so any lab in the half of the first debate was rough. stuart: going forward. united states can use our test he's out of the race but keeping after they do a submission for his staff on until november and keeping his money flowing and authorization and with the it's going to joe biden. >> yeah. stuart: he's buying the biden emergency use authorization they don't have to wait for the fda to give them approval. candidacy? >> if you could buy the election they just simply have to submit. we would be the nominee right stuart: you can ramp up now so clearly that's not production to fulfill all the possible. orders that are coming at you? stuart: his money will go a long way for joe biden. >> we have the ability to test >> i hope you're right and i -- we can produce 50,000 tests hope it does but we just saw someone spending half a billion dollars to mainly come in third at a time and with our india facility once we get approval on super tuesday primary states, you may be more optimistic than from the co, about 150,000 tests i am act the impact. yeah, mike feels strongly that if sanders is the nominee he can't be trump. a day. stuart: i want to thank you very mike feels strongly trump much for coming on board today, very important news hearing it shouldn't be the president. from you, sir. it is a market selloff, yes, it is, dow is down 690. stuart: they are the big money s&p down 72. party. >> both party are always the big you think you get use today big

9:33 am
13 basis points. that means there is an enormous flood of money into the safety of 10-year treasurys. 0.93%. mortgage rates, what have you got? >> lowest in almost 50 years. huge drop from last week, 3.29%. if you're in the market for 30-year mortgage. stuart: that is news. >> that is news. drop from last week. versus 3.45. real headline, this is the lowest level in almost 50 years since the government started to strack this data. stuart: 30 year fixed-rate loans with 20% down. >> exactly right. stuart: classic loan. >> for those not going quick so far out 30 years. 15, 2.79. stuart: 15 year fixed. what is that? >> 2.79.
9:34 am
for those on shorter term horse on, five-year arm a justable rate, 3.18%. that is down, that is the least difference, 3.2%. stuart: oh, that's going to fall. that will come way down. there is no i waa can have 3.18% on five-year adjustable when you have the 10-year treasury yielding 0.93%. >> we're getting all kinds of records. stuart: one other story on real estate. we have a lot of them for you. real estate is a pretty good investment. mortgage lenders are hiring, is that right? lauren: big time. hiring thousands of workers for expected spring selling season for the higher rates. rates are going even lower to keep that in mind. one company, this is a quote. they say, kiss your families good-bye because you're going to be working a lot. one lender had biggest day ever in terms of activity. so many people calling. even jpmorgan chase, major bank, they told their home equity staff, half of that team would
9:35 am
be transferred to mortgages just to keep up because people sitting on the sidelines are looking at these rates, saying, maybe we should jump in. i do have one thing to say here. if we're afraid to go out in public whether in california or washington, are you going to an open house, shake hands, be around people that you don't know? something to consider. when you see the market down 700 points, do you want to stay on the sidelines. stuart: understood. i could do a refi. you don't have to go see anything. don't have to mingle with anybody to do a refi. there will be a lot of refi activity. lauren: up over 200% own annual basis. stuart: he normally covers the stoke market for us. there he is, scott martin. i want to talk about real estate. i will offer my opinion. in my opinion florida real estate is better investment than stock market. what do you say? >> i agree. as rates come down further, real estate remains attractive. it will be less volatile than the crazy stock market.
9:36 am
one other quick thing i note about mortgages, guys, the rates dropping are mainly on conforming loans, not jumbos. limit much 425,000, if you're refi-ing under that level, loan-to-value, loan you will be refi-ing, that is where you get the loan rates. i talked to a bunch of mortgage guys who were talking to the banks. banks are not coming down on jumbo rates, especially on the 30 year. that is something to keep in mind. if you have a big early loan, you may not see the low rates everybody else is supposedly getting. stuart: stock, thank you. i will get you back in a moment on the stock market. we have 770 point drop for the dow jones industrials. all right, everyone, now this. when senator schumer launched his attack on two supreme court justices showed his anger. normally he stays very much on script. he speaks from notes. there was no teleprompter at the
9:37 am
pro-abortion rally. he just let his anger rip. watch this. >> republican legislatures are waging a war on women, all women. they're taking away fundamental rights. i want to tell you gorsuch, i want to tell you, kavanaugh, you have released a whirlwind and and you will pay the price. you won't know what hit you if you go forward with these awful decisions. stuart: we thought you ought to see that. this kind of public rage is becoming commonplace among senior democrats. they have been beaten so badly by president trump, they just can't cone taken themselves. how many times have about trump and his supporters subjected to contempt that borders on hate? who could forget hillary's deplorables speech? who could forget speaker pelosi clearly enraged. watch this. >> first of all the whole state of the union was beneath the
9:38 am
dignity of the white house, an insult to the congress of the united states and the american people. this is an abuse of power that the president is again trying to manipulate federal law enforcement to serve his political interests. and the president is what he is. while he was speaking yesterday in the press conference. let's not, let's not be silly about what that is. stuart: that is the speaker of the house of the united states of america on the campaign trail, elizabeth warren is characterized by anger, raging at the system, the wicked bankers and those dreadful billionaires. bernie sanders does exactly the same. what happened? how is it possible that the senate minority leader could stand on the steps of the supreme court and threaten gorsuch and kavanaugh as he called them. you won't know what hit you he said. surely, this is another example of trump derangement syndrome gone wild. the democrats are the new hate mongers.
9:39 am
get right at it. veronica clear is here. director the clearly strategist. >> thanks for having me. stuart: am i going to for here? that is example of outrageous rage. >> that is ironic accusing the republicans of having rage, hate, intolerance when the examples are right in front of your face. that you laid out so perfectly, what we sue yesterday on the supreme court steps. stuart: hold on a second. let's go to mcconnell on the floor of the senate. >> i want to tell you, gorsuch, i want to tell you kavanaugh, you released the whirlwind and you, you, you will pay the price. you won't know what hit you if you go forward with these awful decisions, end quote. madam president, i'm not sure where to start. there is nothing to call this
9:40 am
except a threat and there is absolutely no question to whom, to whom it was directed. contrary to the what the democratic leader since tried to claim very, very clearly was not addressing republican lawmakers or anyone else. he literally directed the statement to the justices, by name, and he said quote, if you go forward with these awful decisions, which could only apply to the court itself. the minority leader of the united states senate threatened two associate justices of the u.s. supreme court, period. no other way -- stuart: i would characterize exact opposite of rage. that was rather constrained if you ask me. veronica are you with me on this. >> that is a great point. one of the important things to
9:41 am
remember in strategy, thinking about electionss the person who is calm is the person with the power. the person who is enraged is out of control. that is what we saw yesterday. we're seeing a democratic party feels threatened unattack and divided. senator mcconnell, regularly character i can of him on the floor, shows that control and steady presence of leadership. stuart: it is such a turnaround because it was always president trump and his supporters who were -- you're the hate mongers. you're the haters here. i don't think that is true any longer if it ever was. it is these guys now. >> my mom used to say you see people as you are. a lot of hate comes from the media as they cover trump supporters and trump trillion rallies. i think is self-reflection. stuart: i don't think that is good strategy. you're a strategist yourself. do you think it will rebound against the democrats? >> it will hurt them. we have something to think about if joe biden continues to move
9:42 am
forward taking nomination, republicans need to rethink the strategy. we can't necessarily attack the democrats as party of socialism anymore. within their own party they are rallying against that identity. they don't want that. we have to really rethink and recategorize the way we attack democrats and also think about how we present ourselves as a party that has accomplished so much in the last four years a ms and even some progressives would embrace like criminal justice reform, like paid family leave. that is the way we win 2020. certainly not with rage. redirecting focus, they're not necessarily the party of socialism because they are turning their backs on bernie sanders on elizabeth warren. we need to be smart about that. stuart: bernie's -- in my opinion. veronica, good stuff, thank you. >> thank you. stuart: get back to your money. scott martin with us. scott, i have to tell you with the dow down 760 after yesterday's 1hundred point run,
9:43 am
i'm still frustrated with the volatility, are you? >> a little bit. definitely keeping me up at night for sure and keeping clients on their toes. we have factory order numbers for january were not good. well that is january's number, not a big deal. what the market needs to see positive economic momentum. the stronger that is, the better for the markets what is sure to be a slow economic period for next couple months. as numbers come out, tomorrow's jobs number, that is old data, it is fenn be, but the better number the economic downturn can be sustained by the s&p five as we go into april and may. stuart: it is still the same question, isn't it? how much of a slowdown do we get in the american economy because of this slowdown in people meting, traveling, getting together here in these united states. that is the question, isn't it? >> yes. what does this pullback stuart, off the highs in the s&p close to 15% now depending on the day what does that discount? what kind of discount is that factoring in as far as economic
9:44 am
malaise? how long does it last? obviously the more it goes on more pain in the market. market likes to front run things. things are emotional in stocks. if things work out a little better, this will be turning out to be a good buying opportunity. stuart: only time will tell, scott. thank you very much indeed. i will bring you news about the former president of the united auto workers union. thatthat is a gigantic union. gary jones, charged with part of an embezzlement scheme. lauren: it was an on going investigation. he was the highest official with the uaw charged. in taking money over nine years from the uaw's funds, using them for his personal use, such as $13,000 on cigars, $10,000 on golf clothing. his home was raided over the summer if you remember. he is expected to plead guilty but as i said, gary jones the former president of the uaw, highest official charged in the embezzlement scheme thus far. stuart: how off on golf
9:45 am
clothing? lauren: $10,087. $365 in greens fees and $250 to tip the caddie. stuart: will not get into that. we have a story for you. what a story. about the hysteria over the virus, a couple believed to be sick, caused panic on a plane. they were actually a couple of brits hung over. wait until you hear that story. there is an effort in the senate to get the 2022 winter olympic games moved out of china. do you know that? senator mike braun is on the show. he is leading that effort. i want to talk more about senator schumer. there are calls to censure him. our judge, as in napolitano is next. ♪. cologuard:

9:52 am
san francisco and mexico last month. i'm not minimizing this whatsoever, stuart. i just want to mention, it was an elderly person with a heart condition. while it is suspected this person got it on the cruise, it has not been put out by the w.h.o. or anybody else for certain. it is suspected. right you no the ship is going to remain not onshore. governor gavin newsom says we'll screen the passengers. nobody will come back to land until we're sure who has what. stuart: bad pr for the cruise line industry. deirdre: particularly for this company with this particular line. it started with that one. we were hearing from japan where people were quarantined or essentially self-isolated. stuart: carnival made it back to $30 a share. next case, senator schumer, he is really under fire for threatening two supreme court justices. you have to watch this again, please. roll it. >> i want to tell you, gorsuch, i want to tell you, kavanaugh, you have released the whirlwind
9:53 am
and you will pay the price! [cheering] you won't know what hit you if you go forward with these awful decisions. stuart: bring in judge andrew napolitano, what do you think of this? >> it is very troubling. in one respect he doesn't even know what he is talking about, because at the time he said that statement justice kavanaugh hadn't said anything about the abortion, abortion oral argument. justice gorsuch didn't say anything about it throughout the entire oral argument. his objection to the louisiana law which he despises. this recklessness, this personalizing of attacks on the court is extremely damaging. there are nine people in the universe who have the authority to say what the law and what the constitution means. we accept what they say, whether we agree with them or not. we do not threaten them and we do not intimidate them. if we get to threat and intimidation point we will lose respect for law in this country. stuart: that is what it was,

intimidation. >> attempted intimidation. i can't imagine it will be successful. but it is an attempt to intimidate. stuart: i'm not in the legal field. you are. have you ever seen anything like this before? >> yes, but i will tell you i have absolutely never seen but the ferocity, immediacy of the response by the chief justice. no chief justice felt the need to do this in the modern era because this was, you will pay for this? he mentions them by name. now is this actionable? is it criminal? can he be prosecuted for it? this is protected speech because he did not have the present apparent ability to carry out the threat. stuart: but we should be, see exactly what he said, how he said it and the tone he said it. >> said it like a madman, he really did. stuart: which is surprising for -- normally a level kind of guy. >> this is an excellent politician usually strident by

measured in his words. stuart: president trump tweeting in the last hour. here it is. as per recent federal government ruling the federal government will be withholding funds from sanctuary cities. they should change their status, go non-wary. don't protect criminals, et cetera, et cetera. will that make sanctuary states get in line. five rulings, four say that the president canned withhold funds from cities that refuse to cooperate with i.c.e. five says he can. that is the one he is referring. if he does withhold funds, you will see the cities states, march into line. they are desperate for cast. free federal cash. unless and until the fifth decision is appealed to the supreme court. the supreme court must weigh in on this. when there is difference amongst the circuits where something is legal in one part of the country and not legal in the other, the court has to resolve that dispute. stuart: there is a possibility
9:56 am
here that the sanctuary cities and states will go away? >> yes. stuart: good possibility? >> then you will really hear chuck schumer fume. [laughter] stuart: yes indeed. thank you, judge. check zoom, the stock is up now 6%. we started at it was down, wasn't it. lauren: what a turnaround. they put out their earnings last night. tons of bright spots. revenue up 78%. in the past month downloads up 90%. so many good things, yet investors were profit taking this morning. now a sudden turn around as a host of analysts raised their price targets on the stock. i've seen high as 150. since the ipo the stock has doubled. stuart: more cocooning, more businesses say stay home, work from home, more companies get more revenue seems to me. when the stock goes up as much as it has in the last month, what is it 144%?
9:57 am
i can't read that. way up. that is a huge gain. got it. markets come back a little. we're down 600 on the dow, 65 on the s&p, 147 on the nasdaq. now, in a moment i will bring that story to you, two young brits hung over on a singapore airlines flight. everybody thought they got the virus. oh, the consequences. more "varney" after this. ♪ at fidelity, online u.s. stocks and etfs are commission-free. and when you open a new brokerage account, your cash is automatically invested at a great rate. that's why fidelity leads the industry in value while our competition continues to talk. ♪ talk, talk

it's surprising how the bigger a city gets... the smaller it starts to feel. which makes it even more surprising, how big it feels in here. with sliding rear seats... and more available second row legroom than say... a chevy suburban. this is the completely reimagined 2020 ford escape. you've been hearing a lot about 5g. but there's 5g... and then there's verizon 5g. we're building the most powerful 5g experience for america. it's more than 10 times faster than some other 5g networks. and it's rolling out in cities across the country. so people can experience speeds that ultra wideband can deliver. 1.7 gigs here in houston. 1.8 gigs here in frigid omaha. almost 2 gigs here in los angeles. that's outrageous. it's like an eight-lane highway compared to a two-land dirt road.
9:59 am
10:00 am
10:01 am
stuart: we're down across the board, down 680 on the dow, 74 on the s&p. the nasdaq is down 164. now i want to get to that singapore airlines story. picture this. a couple young brits. they're in singapore. they're on vacation. they will fly back to london. they go out on the town. they drink themselves stupid. they get really drunk. they get on a singapore airlines flight next morning 6:00 a.m. they get on the flight, they ask for an aspirin. clearly not feeling well. immediately the cabin crew think, these guys, they have got the virus. there is panic on the plane. people sitting next to them are horrified and angry.
10:02 am
they have to make them lie down, separate them out from other people. when they land in london the medics come on the plane. they're wearing hazmat suits. they escort the two young women, who they were, british women, escort them off the plane and they take them to a quarantine center. all of that because of the panic over the virus. all they had was a bad hangover. that is cautionary tale if i heard one about the demon drink. it is true, isn't it? almost funny. i mean -- lauren: i hate to laugh at this. stuart: now the bank, hsbc holdings on your screen, what's this? one of their floors in london evacuated. deirdre: one of the employees was hit by the virus. so he tested positive. he self-isolated. he is home but the staff on the affected floor, basically all the staff told to work from home. the floor is being deep cleaned. 10,000 people who work in this
10:03 am
area of hsbc, goldman sachs, jpmorgan, hsbc curbing international business travel. basically saying if you don't have to get on a plane to see your clients please don't. stuart: everybody is doing that. enormous amount of clamping down. don't travel if you don't have to, don't go overseas period. i think that is what they're saying. i want to emphasize the human side of the virus story. we have a special guest in the studio to cover this for us. he lived in wuhan, china, got out and her and her family, well now, they can't go back and they're living out after suitcase, is that correct? >> that's correct. stuart: where are you living? >> currently i'm in the states. my husband and my son are in europe. stuart: you are living out after suitcase. >> absolutely? stuart: what's it like? >> it has been frustrating it, has been scary, especially with a 3-year-old, you know, trying to explain to him that our hotel room is a new home in a sense. stuart: wuhan where you lived?
10:04 am
>> wuhan where we lived. we lived there for a year. stuart: and you left mid-january? >> we left mid-january, just before the chinese new year. stuart: was that just before the city was locked down? >> just before the city was locked down. stuart: what was it like before the lockdown? >> the lochdown, we were told it was a pneumonia outbreak. that was odd for us. i didn't know pneumonia would spread like this. local malls, they would have tables full of hand sanitizers, big sizes. you would have to you know, use hand sanitizers. there were more face masks than normal. we became alarmed seeing how the people looked and how the streets were. stuart: were the streets deserted? >> not at that point, no, not at that point. before we left there were still people out. there had only been a couple of deaths reported to our knowledge and so it was just something we were really confused about. we weren't quite sure exactly what was happening, what was
10:05 am
going on. it was still very new. stuart: did you ever go or to the i think called the wild meat market where supposedly all started from? did you know it? >> i never heard of it. i have never seen it. we don't, we're not very adventerous when it comes to our palates in that way. i never heard it previous to this particular situation. stuart: you got out, just a few days before wuhan was locked down. >> yes. stuart: what were the authorities telling you in those few days before you left? >> in those few days, simply this is ammonia scare. it wasn't really concrete information t was very confusing. we had a lot of group chats with americans that live in wuhan. a lot of people we were going back and forth trying to figure out between our consulate that's in wuhan, what was going on, what was going to happen, what was going to be the next plan putting in place because a lot of people -- stuart: you knew something was
10:06 am
going on? >> yes. stuart: no doubt about it? >> absolutely. stuart: you got out, weren't on vacation or you got out because you knew something was coming? >> we had planned vacation months in advance. chinese new year is the most popular holiday. we didn't want to wait until the last minute. flights were up. hotels were up. just so happened this happened right in the midst of chinese new year and when we got out it was a matter of we couldn't get back. stuart: are you glad you got out? >> i'm absolutely ecstatic we got out. stuart: i'm sure you are. had you not gotten out, maybe the government here, america's government would have flown you out but it would have been a dreadful experience. >> absolutely. one of my husbands quarterback, my husband coaches american football, he was in quarantine two weeks, chartered on the plane coming back here. i can't imagine what that is like going through the quarantine process. going through all of the screenings, especially having a toddler. stuart: do you have any idea when you will go back? >> we have no idea.
10:07 am
as of pretty much, told my land lady, keep our things. stuart: will you go back? >> we may go back. we definitely do like china as far as traveling. we've been going since 2016. it has our home for two years. the last two years, so it is very bittersweet that it's so untouchable for us now. stuart: forgive me for asking this question, but what are you doing for money? >> i'm a freelance writer. my husband thankfully has just taken another contract. so he is in europe now. but we literally were surviving off of our savings. stuart: we wish you well. >> thank you. stuart: that is quite a story. we're very happy you shared it with us. we wish you the very best in the future. >> i appreciate it. stuart: thanks very much, we'll see you later. president trump tweeting on senator schumer. here it is. schumer has brought great danger to the steps of the united states supreme court. we had -- sorry, schumer is speaking now. he is actually on the floor of the senate speaking now.
10:08 am
he said, he shouldn't have used the words he used but will still defend the rights of women. in no way was i making a threat. he is speaking right now. that is what he had to say. it was not an apology. it is an explanation for the word that he has used. he has caused quite a ruckus with his attack on two supreme court justices. there you have it. get back to your money, virus, what's happening with various stocks. airlines, this is nothing to do with the virus this is airline story which i find absolutely incredible. some airlines are considering charging you more for the middle seat. come on. lauren: the new middle seat. stuart: what's that. lauren: some airlines adding one whole inch to the width of it. stuart: still fighting for the arm rest. lauren: fighting for the arm rest. they tested this. comfort levels go up when folks have a little bit of extra width.
10:09 am
where does the width come from? if you're adding one inch on left side and right side, taking two inches out of the aisle. that is nightmare. i barely fit through aisles after plane, going on and going to the bathroom. can you explain being up charged for the middle seat. stuart: they're in bad shape i imagine they're looking for money wherever they get it. charging extra for the middle seat is a new one. it will take off, of course. forgive the pun. tesla, where is that right now? tesla is down 16 bucks. just a few moments ago, that thing was up significantly. deirdre: 10%. stuart: it was a bright spot. now it's not. gm is launching a whole new series of electric cars to go after tesla? deirdre: it certainly is. 13 electric vehicles in the next five years coming from gm. the ceo says they will go from zero to 60 miles per hour in as little as three seconds. which performancewise does put
10:10 am
it on bar with tesla's cars. i want to mention a quick note about tesla's big move. we saw past couple days, positivity. selling better, that model 3 in europe than a lot of people had expected. so you had some people buying. obviously tesla has the huge factory in shanghai. there are not surprisingly some analysts saying they will have trouble executing in china, given all that is going on. stuart: tesla turned around. it really turned around. that is down 17 bucks. the whole market turned around, headed further south. just literally a couple minutes ago we were down, what, 580. now we're down 727. we'll deal with that shortly. there is an effort on capitol hill to get the 2022 winter olympics moved out of china. senator mike braun is part of that effort. why does he want it moved out of china? we'll certainly find out. he is next. ♪.

stuart: heard it hear first, "the new york times" is reporting that senator elizabeth warren is suspending her campaign. we have no other details. she was unable to build broad support, placed third in her home state, fourth in the native state of oklahoma but she is out. here is my question. lauren: yes. stuart: who does she throw her support to? it is either bernie or it is biden. lauren: my sense is biden. what deal did they cut if anywhere she could have position in potential biden administration. the argument for bernie she could unify the left if she did that. she didn't support bernie in 2016. she went for hillary clinton. stuart: the argument will be if she throws her support behind bernie, bernie has pa shot getting the nomination. amalgamate the two leftists,
10:16 am
maybe they can win. the argument going with biden, you get a cabinet position if he wins. lauren: treasury secretary. stuart: treasury secretary. lauren: we're speculating. or vice president. deirdre: that would seem unlikely post. stuart: bring in the authority. i hope he doesn't mind me calling authority on senator elizabeth warren, nonetheless i'm going to make him one, senator mike braun, republican from indiana. >> hi, stu. stuart: senator, warren is out. what's your speculation who she supports? >> heard rumors of that yesterday and was discussing it with my chief of staff early today. i think she's in the first time in kind of a win-win position because obviously her campaign could not go on. if she throws in with bernie, that makes her a good choice possibly as a vp candidate to shore up the left. if she casts bernie aside and most of her philosophy, that
10:17 am
might work with some of the establishment. so i think obviously her campaign was over. i didn't think this election could get more interesting but it just got to a new level. stuart: let me add one point here. i think bernie is bust. i think socialism is bust in america. that is my position. i know you agree with me. >> i will second the motion there but what it's going to do, i think there will be some equalibrium going into their convention and, it's a lose-lose there because, if bernie getting jilted in any fashion, his supporters i think are going to stay home. and it is a tricky navigation for democrats. their platform stinks to boot. i think trump's benefiting every day from this. stuart: politics is such a lot of fun these days, isn't it? senator, you're part of an effort to get the 2022 winter olympics out of china where it
10:18 am
is supposed to be. why do you want them out? >> i think that makes sense from every angle. when you look how they behave as a, in the world trade arena. the fact that it's run by the politburo. you have all the human rights issues constantly surface. why should we be rewarding them with something that high of a profile? immediately when i saw that, i said we're getting on it. so i'm support it 100%. stuart: you turned this into a real new cold war, wouldn't you? just like the way we objected to the soviet union. we did not appear in the 1980 moscow olympics because of the cold war. you will make it not as bad but somewhat similar? >> i think, stu, if it hadn't been for the fact that the chinese have fully displayed the hand they're working with, that is all the things impacting trade.
10:19 am
we talked about it many times from the intellectual property theft, their huge production of monopolizing industries and that is why tariffs were brought in. i didn't like them but it was a good tool and it worked. when you see the coronavirus issue, it says the chinese government has a lot to grapple with but look how they're constituted. they're state capitalists now. i think they know to really become part of the world community you can't behave like they have, including maybe liberalizing their political system. so it could be a wake-up call for them as well. stuart: mr. senator, as you know, senator schumer launched quite an attack on two supreme court justices yesterday. this morning he has gone on the floor of united states senate to perhaps wouldn't use those words again. he was trying to explain the statement but din apologize. what is your take, sir? >> i think what he actually believes came out of his mouth.
10:20 am
i contended with him for six months in 2018 when he ran a campaign of lies and distortions. i was one of the few that was going toe-to-toe with him during impeachment. they have got a weak case. they never rely on the merits of their case, and then they try to sensationalize things like he did out in front of the supreme court building yesterday. i had to walk right by it. i live near there. sooner or later you will be called out for that kind of behavior as well. i in fact was thinking about doing that same censure, then found out josh hawley did it this morning. i think one of the first to join with him. you know, chuck schumer runs a vicious campaign platform. the substance of what they are trying to give us, more of this federal government that already doesn't work or pay for itself. so sooner or later that will catch up with you. stuart: got you. senator braun, thanks for joining us.

words for those high-taxed salt states. roll tape. >> mr. secretary, are you aware many people are leaving new york state and other states because of the high taxes they pay in those states that are no longer deductible at the federal level? >> i am, and i think that's quite unfortunate. i think some of those high-taxed states including new york and california should think about lowering their taxes. stuart: yes, but they won't. grover norquist is with us, americans for tax reform founder and president. grover, i was all in favor of the president's tax reform and tax cuts but they killed me because i live in new jersey but would you repeal salt if you could? >> no of course not. mnuchin has done exactly the right thing. these left-wing governors from democratic states, mayors who have high property taxes on you, governors who put high income tax on you want to blame somebody else for their failure to govern reasonably and to
10:27 am
tax-and-spend reasonably. mnuchin through it right back in their face. the reason why new yorkers have high taxes is you, governor cuomo, and you, new york mayor. you should behave. the people in those states have a job and responsibility to get new governance. look, six million new yorkers benefited from the doubling of the personal exemption. you have 280,000 who got rid of that tax, the obamacare tax 75% hit people who are less than $50,000 a year. all income groups in new york did better. i mean, average family in four, two kids, four people in the family, average income, 2,000-dollar tax cut. single mom, one kid, 1300-dollar, tax cut. this tax cut was good for everybody, all income groups. it will be even better when new york reduces income taxes and new york city decides to get serious about property taxes and somebody should ask bloomberg why he made things worse rather
10:28 am

that i guess is volatility. that drives me crazy. as for 10-year, record low. 0.929%. that's the treasury yield. interest rate there way, way down. in the last hour we adopt the read on mortgage rates and they are at historic lows. tumbling mortgage rates, what will that do to the housing market? we will tell you shortly. right now come on in charles payne, host of making money and the author of the great, great best-sell e unstoppable prosperity. i love the title. that was smart of you. that's marketing and a half. charles: thank you. stuart: they are driving me crazy. charles: we went through a stretch where we didn't move 1%. we got comfortable with it.
10:34 am
stuart: sorry to interrupt you, charles. i hate to get in front of you, yesterday we went up 1100 points. why because joe biden had done well. today we are down 600 points. oh, why, because of the virus. this makes no sense to me. charles: that part doesn't make sense to me. virus was around to me. i think yesterday was antisanders rally. socialism off the table. absolutely phenomenal. key industries that we needed to see manufacturing. jobless claims today. everything that you want to see in an economy against dark unknown. we are in a black hole. in wall street they call it
10:35 am
price dislovery and hard to do it because we don't have all the data. we are trying to fill ourselves around. what i'm watching for right now is the low on monday, will that hold? biggest test would be friday's low. those are my two points on the downside if is virus materialize. maybe there's some brilliant deep-pocketed smart folks throughout. the same folks that bought the markets on the dips in 10, 11 years, that could be signal of sorts. >> the bottom will be reached and we will know it when we can see firmly the other side of the virus. washed through our society and know the damage. we really start to move up. >> won't be wash through until maybe 2 years. i'm just saying everyone has had vaccine, treatment, something, when you say completely washed through i think we can get signs where china is getting signs and
10:36 am
their economy has gone back a lot and even south korea where they took draconian measures and reporting fewer cases. feels like the real scary part outside of the country seems italy and the rest of the europe in part of because of open borders. we are taking our news -- the last new i had to report breaking news on more deaths. each time the dow went higher after that report. each time. you know, 700 points and off 400 points. the headline stuff isn't necessarily impacting as much. stuart: charles, you're a smart right. mortgage rates, man, are they falling. the fed cut, the virus impact on the economy and the markets, interest rates are just tumbling especially the 30-year fixed rate mortgage down 3.29%. 20% down. 30-year fiction.
10:37 am
jerry howard, national association of home builders ceo is with us now. i would have thought that this was a tremendous shot in the arm especially for the refi market, what say you? >> both refi and new purchases. i think the fed was really smart the other day to do emergency rate cut and it really is going help the housing markets when we come out of it. >> i've got the 15-year fiction. 2.79% and you can get a 5-year adjustable so the rate is set for the first 5 years, 3.18%. i can't remember seeing it this low, jerry. >> i don't think it ever has been. not in my lifetime. it's unbelievable opportunity for some of these people who have been sitting on the fence particularly newly formed families in post recessionary time, now time to come in and happening at a very good time because as we go into spring and summer it's the building and it's the buying season. >> that's right, jerry, charles,
10:38 am
i see this as a really serious bright spot for the economy, right? >> it is enormously bright spot and i've been talking about it since last august since i saw the permits and housing numbers and i think household formation is phenomenal. the younger age group is starting to do it. stuart, under 25. home ownership has gone to 24% to 22% a year ago. under 35 is 37.6%. that's the lowers of many years. millennials are starting to buy homes and i have to tell you something, if start to rethink even with the coronavirus living on top of each other in apartment buildings and, you know, if you have a chance maybe i should get a house or, you know, just -- it's all about attitudes. it's all about attitudes. i think we has household formation beginning and picking up momentum. stuart: you have to get back to the belief that the first house is biggest investment you'll ever make. you to convince millennials of that and they are being convinced of that actually.
10:39 am
charles: i think so. the freedom, you know, turn your music up. it's just -- there's a lot of freedom in living in your own as oppose having your neighbor knock on your door because they don't like what you're cooking. stuart: hold on a second, charles. red counties outperformed counties when it homes to home construction. i don't -- you can see it. that's very interesting. you want to explain that, jerry? >> regulations, lack of regulations, red counties seem to have policies in place that want to give people the opportunity to move into a home and start the american dream, home ownership off and blue counties, two-thirds of construction for single-family homes in red counties, two-thirds of the construction for multifamily homes apartments in blue counties. it's hard not to draw the conclusions.
10:40 am
>> why wouldn't blue counties change the rules? >> i don't understand. for the life of me it's like prior segment why don't new york and california reduce their tax rates, it's misguided policies, misguided leadership. charles: there's a war on single -family home ownership. there's a war on it. the part of the progressive dream is that we all live in the big urban centers on top of each other powered by a waterfall or solar panel and you have certain cities that have said it is racist. you have cities in this country now implementing things that will force multifamily homes in suburban areas. so they are forcing counties to build these things. there's a big movement here. it's been going on for a while but they are really now taking it to another level. >> do you see that, jerry, people push intoed cities and high-rise buildings because of climate change or something?
10:41 am
>> i think you can say that policies many the blue states where they are obviously multifamily construction would try and push people that way but they are pushing them, charles. people are not going willingly. we pull the marketplace constantly and when we talk to potential home buyers, what they want ultimately is a single family house with backyard in school district and that's still the american dream and so i think you can only push people so far before they say, wait a second, this is my life you're messing with. stuart: well said, young man, well said. here is another bright spot. exactly what we want to hear, mortgage lenders hiring a lot more people. lauren: because rates are so low and they expect a lot of people especially millennials, money to invest and buy a home to jump in with these teaser rates. the issue coronavirus could affect this but generally speaking this is a very good sign for the housing market with
10:42 am
there being great demand. stuart: the indicater that i'm looking at is market, prime to explode, right? >> people who are refinancing are increasing equity. great time to do it and you will see the market explode as you said hence the hiring. stuart: this is my opinion, i will start with you and go to charles. in my opinion florida real estate is a better investment than the stock market. to you first, jerry, what do you think? >> i always think real estate is the safest investment and they are simply not making that much more land. stuart: i'm playing my own book. what do you say, charles? charles: i anticipated this question.

charles: from february 2012 s&p is up 127% but the s&p bottomed first, right, and it's up 347% from its low from the great recession. it's liquid, it made a much bigger bounce and you can play the real estate market by buying stocks, remember i told you my august 12th report? it's up 39%. stuart: you are so wrong. stuart: i do want people to townhomes and i do believe in single-family house and i do believe in white picked fence because there's so much more to economies. stuart: that is true. charles: it's vital. ownership is vital and i think that kind of community is vital too and i don't want that to disappear in the country. stuart: naples florida, naples, naples, naples. >> home ownership also brings you people who are more engaged in their communities, people who
10:44 am
produce better-educated children. people who vote more, home ownership is not only a monetary investment, it's a social investment in america. stuart: precisely right, naples, naples. thank you very much, indeed. charles, don't say another word, when can i see you on tv? charles: 2:00 p.m. let me write that down. [laughter] stuart: gentlemen, thank you very much, indeed. you like a bright spot on a day like this. look at. this headquarter healthcare stocks, they rallied after bernie sanders lackluster performance on super tuesday. down a little bit right now. airlines, they are feeling the heat from the virus. lots of trips canceled much less demand and you fly these days you will see a lot of planes not exactly empty but half empty. dierdre, positive news -- positive news on the virus. >> off the presses, who, world health organization saying sees

encouraging signs from south korea, number of newly reported cases appears to be declining and charles mentioned a few moments ago, they were aggressive. they have drive-thru stations, you see the images, they take your temperature right on your forehead. they went hard, they got out in front of it and now it seems, we will hope for them and the rest of the world that there's a handle on it when you choose to be aggressive. charles: i read a headline thatn efforts. the countries that had it first and they are curving their rate of growth but they did something, they went hard, they went very, very hard. stuart: charles, again, thanks, indeed, thank you, dierdre. live shot now of the home of elizabeth warren. it's in cambridge, massachusetts, we are told she may come out and speak. as you may know but if you're just joining us, we will tell you again, she has dropped out of the race. that's her house. we hope she comes out. a tweet from president trump,
10:46 am
here it is. elizabeth warren who was going nowhere except into mimi mike's head dropped out of democratic primary, 3 days too late. he cost crazy bernie massachusetts, minnesota and texas, probably cost him the nomination. came in third in mass. okay. >> her home state. stuart: senator chuck schumer facing major backlash after singling out two appointed supreme court justices, watch this again, employees. >> i want to you gorsuch and i want to tell you kavanaugh, you have released the world wind and you will play the price. stuart: he tried to explain himself in the senate floor this morning, the opposition mounting on capitol hill. the left's bubble has burst and in complete shambles, bloomberg is out backing joe biden. elizabeth warren is out of the
10:47 am

[ applause and band playing ] only pay for what you need. ♪ liberty. liberty. liberty. liberty. ♪ stuart: with astonishing speed the left's bubble burst. monday, oh, the socialists were riding high. tuesday they crashed. wednesday, like a funeral. it's a bernie sanders failure. he had promised to lead a broad-base coalition, didn't happen. black voters voted and went for biden, suburban women went for biden and the youth vote didn't show up. what was supposed to be a socialist crusade fell very flat. but it wasn't just bernie, alexandria ocasio-cortez, aoc,
10:52 am
backed 3 young progressive women to challenge moderate incumbents, that failed too. none of them won. and then there's elizabeth warren, she insisted she was not a socialist but her countless plans added up to just ant -- about the same thing and she came in third in her home state in massachusetts and fourth in native state of oklahoma and now she's out. the left claims they were ambushed by the establishment. they were hit by bloomberg's money but what they have to face is absurdity of socialism itself. massive tax hikes, kill all fossil fuels, all government all of the time, you know the drill, it's absurd, they won't face it because it's their religion, jealousy of success is their passion. we are looking t a bernie bust. monumentam event on super tuesday's was not biden surge, the end of the far leftless challenge to capitalism as we know it. the left lost.
10:53 am
bernie, opinion, is done. my next guest wrote this. welcome to the democratic party civil war, christian white wrote it and joins us now. civil war, that's a strong term, back it up, christian. >> well, what you see in the democrats as you point out they've been fundamentally set back, the bernie wing, equivalent of the corbyn wing in uk, very socialist, very woke, suffered a big setback on super tuesday. they are down but not out and when you think about it, what happens if biden wins and once again the left-wing insurgency that's been around for some time, you go back to howard dean in i have speech and once again betrayed especially if joe biden goes onto lose against donald trump. you'll have angst in the democratic party. it's a dysfunctional party. reminiscent of uk labor.
10:54 am
>> let me jump in for a second, warren is out. if she were to throw her support to bernie, i don't know what she's going to do. if she went to bernie, could that resurrect him a little? >> yeah, i think you're coming down to basically a binary choice on the democrats' side between bernie and biden. both of these people are fundamentally flawed. it's not like they are perfect representatives of ideology. bernie is 78. 79 before the next election. had a hart attack within -- heart attack within the last year and joe biden not a spring chicken and gaffe machine. biden does something like that about every other day. so you have personal on top of ideology. binary choice coming up. stuart: i think i know where you're coming from.
10:55 am
the media is praising democrats for rallying around joe biden, watch this. >> well, the democrats were able to do right before super tuesday which coalesced around a single candidate in order to -- to try and stop bernie sanders. >> you're seeing what you might call biden coalition. >> mike has said over and over again he message, so with joe biden moving forward mike bloomberg will get behind him. >> they hoped that all of that was going to move the needle and it certainly did. >> you zoom out. unprecedented comeback. stuart: they are all in on biden because they have no choice. >> yeah, well, we see how in many ways are part and parcel with the democrat establishment. this infuriates supporters, bernie supporters on the more progressive side of the left.
10:56 am
they view msnbc and cnn left-wing networks as fundamental in bed with the democrat establishment that even though they have far-left progressive voices at the end of the day they consolidate around who they think is most likely to beat donald trump. stuart: precisely right, christian, thanks for joining us again, thank you, sir. a couple of stocks we need to check here, first of all zoom video communications. it's now up 9%. tell me more. lauren: on a tear. stuart: they were down? lauren: the stock has been up a lot particularly through the coronavirus but they reported really stiller impressive numbers and they added more users this year than they did in all of 2019, so as companies tell their workers, look, you're not essential to coming into the office, stay home. let's all be safe and virus free, a stock like zoom surges. >> that's exactly what microsoft had just done in bay area and seattle. stay home, please. things like zoom could be very
10:57 am
useful in those situations. lauren: that's how you could work if you stay home, exactly. stuart: got it. how about apple? they are out with a warning, the stock down is 4 bucks, 2.98. >> ceo tim cook saying it's a supply change issue. he says apple is fundamentally strong. of course, we want to mention as well apple has tons of suppliers in china but also as tim cook referenced in korea, in italy, so numerous parts of their chain are being affected, however, the company is addressing it. stuart: shy of 300 bucks a share on apple. got it. many of us have heard of the keto diet, have you heard over the keto comfort diet? celebrity chef joins me to explain it all. i have no idea. super tuesday, rejection of socialism. that's what i think. my next guest says it's --

11:02 am
stuart: here is the news, we are down 500 on the dow, 109 on the nasdaq, 52 on the s&p. it's down across the board. joe biden seems to have an edge on bernie sanders. i think that's understatement after sanders' underwhelming performance on super tuesday. may next guest says, socialism just bombed. his name is dan henninger, wall street journal guy. you agree with me? >> i do. stuart: it's over? >> i don't know whether it's quite over. it's not over until it's over. we have a lot of primaries ahead of us but i think the socialist idea that progressive idea really hit a big speed bump here on super tuesday which is interesting because when i think back to the first democratic debate, way back in june, people like -- castro, kirsten gillibrand, kamala harris, bernie was talking about
11:03 am
medicare for all, okay hackio's new deal -- ocasio's new deal and joe biden to defend barack obama's care. stuart: far left actually dominate it is culture. >> they do. stuart: you agree with that? >> i do. look, joe biden's performance in virginia and massachusetts where he carried the black vote and suburban vote should have been a wake-up call six months ago to
11:04 am
people like kamala harris and cory booker but fascinating how deeply they are influenced by social media. stuart: we should not forget that aoc tried to do a squad 2.0. she failed 3 young women progressives, two in texas and one in california. they didn't win. you want to call them the progressives, that's what they call themselves. they bombed as well. >> yeah, that was the implication of congressman's jim clyburnes endorsement at the 11th hour. moderate democrats who flipped republican seats in 2018 and for the last 6 months like through the whole impeachment thing those moderate house democrats have been saying we are really nervous about going this far left and now i think the democratic electorate has said we are very nervous about adopting socialism as our flag. >> now, elizabeth warren has dropped out.
11:05 am
>> yeah. stuart: we just heard that literally a couple of hours ago. we don't know who she will throw her support to but let's supposed if she threw it to bernie sanders, is that enough to get him the nomination from the democrats or advance his cause a little bit so he's not a bust? >> i don't think so. i think a lot of her support is split between biden and sanders and i have to say, stuart, elizabeth warren is a democratic senator. she's a member in good standing of the democratic party which is circling the wagons here. i would be shocked if elizabeth warren endorses bernie sanders. she's got a future in the democratic party. she's got a lot of legislation she wants to put through in the democratic senate and i just do not see her endorsing bernie sanders. stuart: you think she might be the treasury secretary. >> biden's running mate? stuart: which is the better deal go with bernie or go with the vp
11:06 am
job? [laughter] stuart: thanks very much, indeed, dan henninger. that was good. you saved the best for last. you did, you did. all right. bloomberg is out, so let's bring in doug sean who may or may not be still on bloomberg's payroll. [laughter] stuart: you don't know this one, do you? >> he engaged me through the election. i was with him yesterday when he made his decision to drop out and i can only tell you anything mike bloomberg would want me to do is my pleasure. >> as i understand it he's keeping a lot of his staff, the bloomberg staff -- the election staff, he's keeping a lot of them and he's suggesting that he might throw his money behind joe biden as well. that would mean that bloomberg finances the biden campaign and staffs it. >> yeah, i think what is more likely he will focus on the general election and running against donald trump. he had initially said he was going to mount an effort against trump. that turned into his candidacy
11:07 am
which was largely focused on drinks and distinctions from the trump policies and i think what is certain is mike bloomberg is not going away and he will focus with his remaining staff not his whole staff but remaining staff on turning out the vote in key states against donald trump. stuart: does he feel like he's wasted his money? if i sound strong here i do apologize. >> no, it's okay. stuart: make a fool of himself. >> i don't think he made a fool of himself. stuart: does he feel that way? >> no he doesn't. stuart: any regrets from him? >> i sense no regrets. he we wanted to make a case against trump. for a brief moment he thought he might be alternative to trump. when that appeared not to be the case, he very quickly assessed the situation, endorsed biden and my sense of him is that he feels he made a contribution to the body politics and will continue to. stuart: you do sense the irony,
11:08 am
you recognize the irony, i'm sure that the democrats who have forever railed against big money in politics are now the big-money party? >> well, i would say this, i've always been a capitalist. i think the democratic party has been a party of a mixed expressway, social safety net and very wealthy people who would want to support causes that i believe are important, to me it's a god thing and as a democrat, i don't think you have to issue wealth and success. stuart: you know, you're a natural-born politician, why don't you run for office? you could navigate the diplomacy of language very quickly. >> prefer debating with you and people like dan. stuart: there's no money in politics, that's why you won't get into it. >> i've done okay in my life. stuart: i know that you have. all right, doug, where to from here? what are you going to do now? >> i am hopefully going to continue to make a contribution to fnc and fbn which i had a
11:09 am
happy association with. i greatly enjoy it and will continue to do that and as i said, i will help mike bloomberg in efforts to defeat donald trump any way i can. stuart: is he watching now? >> is he watching now? stuart: does he watch varney & company? >> he should be. >> stuart: that's not the question. >> he has. stuart: what does he think of me, foreigners fresh off the boat? >> he has a number of englishmen working on the campaign and in his company and the editor of bloomberg opinion john, a former editor of the economist, i think he has got -- house in london, big instillation in london. stuart: i read it for 40 years and canceled my subscription when they said we should vote for obama over romney.
11:10 am
i canceled my subscription at that point. we are just having fun, doug. come back soon. >> i'm always happy to. stuart: we like to entertain, you know how it is? >> i do, indeed.

[cheers and applause] >> if you go forward with awful decisions. >> extremely rare response chief justice john roberts said
11:16 am
justices know that criticism comes with a territory but threatening statements of this sort from the highest levels of government are not only inappropriate, they are dangerous. all members of the court will continue to do their job without fear or favor from whatever quarter. senator john borrasso, mr. senator, senator schumer on the floor of the senate this morning explaining himself, what do you make of his explanation and what he said yesterday? >> well, there's no excuse in my opinion for what chuck schumer said yesterday in front of the supreme court which was a direct threat at members of the supreme court by name and i believe that is why the chief justice in a very rare display called senator schumer out as a result of that. it's a reflection of how serious this threat was. to me it sounded like a physical threat because he named the justices gorsuch and kavanaugh and then he said you will pay a price. you will not know what hit you.
11:17 am
you know, that's what happened to the republican ball team on the field and became the victim of the mass shooting. this cannot stand and i think that senator schumer owes an apology to both of those justices. stuart if someone were outside of your home saying those things about you, you will pay a price, you will not know what hit you, to you you would view this as a direct threat to your personal well-being. stuart: i would. well, this morning he did not apologize and my question to you now is, sir, will you join the effort to censor him in the senate? >> well, i think he owes a direct apology to those justices that he in my opinion directly threatened. i know josh howley is circulating a petition to do just that. i'm happy to join that effort, but to me that's not the issue. the issue is chuck schumer owes an apology to two members to have supreme court. i believe he physically
11:18 am
threatened him or incited violence upon them. this is the way the democrats seem to handle things. they do not respond to just working together to find solutions. they are completely intolerant. you have seen the democrats running for president who are saying we are going to expand the court to pack the court, you know, hasn't happened since fdr tried it and failed 3 quarters of a century ago. stuart: senator, there's some speculation that mr. schumer, senator schumer was outspoken yesterday because he's worried about a threat to his senate seat and a challenge from aoc. that's why he was so harsh yesterday. have you heard that? do you know anything about it? >> well, i've heard some things in the press. i haven't heard anything on the floor of the senate about it but i will tell you, chuck schumer as the leader of this democrat party is leading a group that has gone far to the left. they've gone far to the left not just on abortion which is what
11:19 am
the topic was, but wanting to raise taxes, on eliminating fossil fuels, on taking healthcare away from 180 million americans, on issue after issue, open borders, violations of our second amendment rights, that is what he has been doing as a democrat leader for the senate and any challenge to him would be something that he probably richly deserves. stuart: senator john borrasso, republican, wyoming, always appreciate you being here, thanks again. >> thanks, stuart. stuart: yes, sir, totally different subject. interesting move by general motors, they've rolled out 13 electric vehicles and battery technology. >> they want to be the car company of the future and that involves electric vehicles so zero to 60 miles per hour that's what they are promising in as little as 3 seconds which performance wise does put it on par with tesla's performance. stuart: gm stock holding up just
